NeilBrown 4d5324f760 md: always hold reconfig_mutex when calling mddev_suspend()
Most often mddev_suspend() is called with
reconfig_mutex held.  Make this a requirement in
preparation a subsequent patch.  Also require
reconfig_mutex to be held for mddev_resume(),
partly for symmetry and partly to guarantee
no races with incr/decr of mddev->suspend.

Taking the mutex in r5c_disable_writeback_async() is
a little tricky as this is called from a work queue
via log->disable_writeback_work, and flush_work()
is called on that while holding ->reconfig_mutex.
If the work item hasn't run before flush_work()
is called, the work function will not be able to
get the mutex.

So we use mddev_trylock() inside the wait_event() call, and have that
abort when conf->log is set to NULL, which happens before
flush_work() is called.
We wait in mddev->sb_wait and ensure this is woken
when any of the conditions change.  This requires
waking mddev->sb_wait in mddev_unlock().  This is only
like to trigger extra wake_ups of threads that needn't
be woken when metadata is being written, and that
doesn't happen often enough that the cost would be
noticeable.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
